susana martinez >> Quite obvious that the continual negative thing against Susana Martinez is the Bill Richardson cronies, the corrupt group of liberals that don't want to see money saved, taxes lowered and a better-balanced New Mexico budget.

susana martinez >> The only positive aspect of the disorganized and mismanaged Martinez administration is the push for reading. Otherwise, the governor has been a dismal failure.

hunting trip >> I see where Gator Chuck Franco's two policemen got paid over $2,600 in overtime pay plus their per diem and the regular salary and got to take their kids on the vacation. Well, my kids just got dropped today from SW Counseling because of no money. What a way to spend money. I am ashamed of our governor for doing this.

tax vote >> Over 600 Dona Ana County residents have already voted in the special election regarding bonds and the egregious proposed tax increase. If you want to stop this unjust tax, you need to vote against it. Don't cry later.

tax vote >> Was amazed to read in sound off that someone here actually believes that 911 and ambulance service are considered "elitist." What about running water and electricity?

sun-news >> I find it very, very difficult to read the Sun News. I used to enjoy it so much and now I don't enjoy it because I get a headache when I'm trying to read it and the print is very, very small. It is not good for us senior citizens.

sun-news >> I am a very disturbed subscriber to Sun-News. Before you did all this change, all the information was listed and easy to find. Now I cant find anything. I have to muddle through everything.

But if that 17-year-old had been their son and was white, and the perpetrator that killed him was 29 years old and black, I guarantee you they would have gone to the end of the earth to seek justice for their son.

zimmerman trial >> We are supposed to get equal protection under the law. Why doesn't George Zimmerman get equal protection under the law?

irs >> I would like to congratulate the Department of Motor Vehicles today for getting me out within an hour. I can't say the same for the IRS. They kept me on hold for an hour and never did answer my questions.

farm bill >> I see nothing inherently wrong with the Republican's dividing the Farm Bill into the entitlement for the rich and the entitlement for the poor, but I do note that the rich got theirs first and with no cuts. I guess all that "fiscal responsibility" stuff was just a passing fad.

Billionaires, entertainers and athletes alike announced their intentions to pursue the Los Angeles Clippers with varying degrees of seriousness Wednesday, proving the longtime losers will be quite a prize if the NBA is able to wrest control of the team away from Donald Sterling after his lifetime ban for racist remarks.
